Trump Escalates Attacks on US Electoral System, Calls for 'Nationalized' Voting Ahead of Midterms

• Donald Trump advocates for the federal government to take over election organization from US states, proposing Republicans 'nationalize' voting in multiple places.
• His comments, condemned by Democrats, come amidst low approval ratings and Republican losses, with midterms approaching on November 3.
• Trump continues to push debunked claims of widespread voter fraud in the 2020 election, despite its legitimacy being confirmed by courts.
• Legal experts like Justin Levitt of Loyola Law School emphasize that the US Constitution clearly assigns election management to states, not the federal government.
• Fears are rising that Trump's actions, including the FBI's seizure of ballots in Georgia and Justice Department lawsuits, aim to cast doubt on upcoming elections or interfere with state-run processes.
